PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau                   
   
Date  5/12/24 
   
Featured track  Churchill Downs   
   
Race number  9 
   
Race overview  An extremely weak N1X for 3up going 1 1/8 miles on the turf. 
   
Pace  It seems honest enough for a turf route going this far, as there are more than a few who want to attend to things early, though the splits likely won’t be all that fast either. 
   
Trends  N/A 
   
Best Play  #2 Athens Moon (3-1) (turf only): Stalker didn’t fire at FG off the claim but it was a close 8th, but it’s a confident move that Hartman keeps him at the level, and he’s back home now too, while meeting as watered down a field as you’ll see at this level. 
   
Bet Types    Aggressive WP bet, and single in late Pk5/Pk4 as well.
